ROCOCO CHOCOLATES - ROALD DAHL CHOCOLATE BARS REVIEW

1 comment
Rococo is a luxury chocolate brand founded in London in 1983. The company have recently launched a range of chocolate bars inspired by author Roald Dahl. As part of the Roald Dahl 100 festivities, Rococo Chocolates has created this special range of Artisan bars celebrating  the genius of the world’s No.1 storyteller. Inspired by Roald Dahl’s incredible tales, each bar is Rococo’s flavourful take on key tastes from the books.

Chantal Coady OBE, founder, owner and creative director of Rococo chocolates, has been a lifelong fan of Roald Dahl ever since she was given the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by her father, who brought it back from New York in the ‘60s, when it was first published, and has had an formative influence on her life in chocolate ever since. 

There are 8 bars in the Roald Dahl range each inspired by a different book. The company where kind enough to send me four of the bars from the range. The bars retail at £5.95 on the Rococo website.
